Reclusive Neighbor-Camera Critters
For the second year in a row, a mother raccoon has housed her family in a huge maple tree in our neighbor's backyard. I'm not sure how many there are in that tree because they are so reclusive. My 7-year-old grand-daughter is fascinated with them.

Camera Saga Continues! The camera doctor here in St. Paul gave up and is going to send my sorely-missed camera to the Canon headquarters, which I should have done in the first place! During the past two weeks, the shop promised to call me with their estimate of the problem and cost, but I had to call them four times to get the information since they never delivered on their promises. I only hope that they send it to Canon as they promised. I'll need to make another callback on Monday to check to see that they have delivered on that promise!! I know that I shall inform the camera shop where I took it initially and who gave me the repair shop's name the full extent of my transaction. Two weeks wasted already!!
